POST-USA ELECTION PUTSCH ? REMEMBER VOTE FRAUD !
checks cross | 01.11.2008 16:59 | Globalisation | Other Press | Social Struggles
Rumours - with a certain amount of backing from UK press ( yesterday ) seem to show that those that have used the current administration in the USA as a sort of "puppet front" to swindle "main street" USA (as they trapped the world in quagmires of ineptly fought wars) are undermining the last weeks of McCains campaign as they plot their internal putsch for the week after the election.
Meetings are scheduled, of state chairmen with certain types of campaigner, to predate the state governors meeting in Miami, trying to get the most out of the bitterness of defeat, the friction of the revoting/fraudulent machinery fracas, or "just in case" (!) undermine the potential "cleaning house" strength of McCain/Palins ACTUAL threat to the more rotten bits of the old establishment - that they DO each have a record of reaching across the boundaries to blow the whistle on or work against those that were in THEIR "old boys network" (in Palins case), or going against what might have seemed their own "short cuts to power" for the sake of decency .( Stopping rallies to argue with people that went across that line to smear Obama was typical of the old McCain, the real McCain, as was the refusal to take private cash - to accept state funding as a way to re-introduce integrity to the structures of democracy in the USA.* The fact that Obama WAS in favour of that state funding too is actually a good sign too - but the "147" or "Swiftboat" type of "seperate" but highly funded attack-campaigns of the last election - along with much awareness of the power of the (subtle, under-the-radar), opposition of the allegedly "independent" media - look at the pictures - playing for prejudice, despite the headlines/text SEEMING to sway "for" the dems meant that the Obama campaign didnt think it could stick with that this time. That mutual project aint dead - but the "chatter" says its one of the McCain/Palin ideas that the old string-pullers within** the nastier bits of their old "supporters" are trying to murder.)
But - after that moment when they swung against Wall Street the way ALL of Main Street did ( DOES ) - as dollar-pinching swindlers - but also incompetent - when they DID chime with the public across the lines - somehow their new "advisors" twisted what they were saying away from that to the old "tax" debate thats mainly blunted by the "%95 of people get a tax-cut with Obama" claim, or the fact that - despite the deception of the equal tax-rebate - the LAST administrations tax-cuts DID go to the biggest wallets, the biggest corporations etc . . . . The attack ads were seen as "nasty" - but despite the fact that these werent put together by McCain or his old supporters, it was his voice at the end of them. The RNCs website had a front page with one of "his" phrases, but the face of a totally different ex-presidential hopeful - Thompson. The same national commitee put Palin into 95k of posh frocks when - that aint her real strength - whereas the talking straight side of her got twisted into a sort of "punching hard/LOW" attack dog that aint her old self either.
Why does this matter ?
The fact that people are trying to plot a re-putsch of the G.O.P when it looked like it was about to discover its soul again ?
The fact that certain of the old puppeteers of the G.O.P prefer that it lose to keep control of it, prefer that scent of internal culture war to the moments when political types of all sides STEP UP to sort out the distortion of democracy that has affected the USA for - as Obama says - decades.
There are others that need listening to also - the greens have stepped up - but the prospect of serious computer vote fraud - played for the FRICTION as much as for influenced representative by representative of each "side" - is as much a threat as it was. Or more. The media myth of the "Bradley Effect" is the most worrying sign that people are preparing the ground for fraud - GET THIS - people that are biased or prejudiced dont say they are going to vote for somebody, then not - they pretend they are against them for DIFFERENT REASONS !!!!
